That's AXOA a member on this forum.I am finally caught up reading! and since no one posted a pic of a purple egg... this was posted to Fresh Eggs Daily on Facebook, by someone named "Leslie". it is not my pic, egg, or bird... but it was laid by a Marans.
my flock fared well with molting, some had it hard... but most have resumed laying already, if irregularly... I have pics to organize,,, my EE's are looking good!
